Does Valve really need a publicity stunt?

It seems to me HL1 (with the various mods) is repeatedly toted as the most heavily played multi game to date. Meaning they are well known.

and it means they'll have to be ready for every concievable hack and mod in history on their fist outting with their servers.. i can see an instant patch coming out or they'll fix some stuff

hmmm, it does seem a bit "funny". and im hoping it was a stunt of some sort.

but 1 thing that may support gabes calims is that fact that he formatted to get rid of any possible infections. therefore he ended up with an unpatched version of windows + outlook. maybe if he read a few emails before/while updating, he accidentaly infected himself again via that preview vulnerability in outlook. just a thought.

and it seems that the havok engine was included in the souce. i would really like to know if any of this is 100% proven. there must be some l33t c++ dudes out there that can look into it :p

I just read the whole thread...

well sure it does smell fishy and gabe's story seems very doubtful indeed... and maybe it's a publicity stunt or something... but then again the source code does include the ipion virtual physics engine source which i don't think valve can allow to leak... mostly b/c they'll get sued big time by havok... and i don't think that's what they want...

I was just as much ****ed as the next guy about the stringing along but they don't deserve this either. What I don't understand is why even after suspecting something was up, Gabe still left the source code unprotected.

Plus, any ideas that this is "fishy" in any way is just plain silly. Who in their right minds would leak the very work that they worked on for 5 years!!

********

Source: I have a friend in myg0t. He stated that SX hacked valves boxes, my guess is he emailed gabe, got a reply, looked at the header and grabbed his IP from there. I guess gabe shouldnt be checking mail from work.

Source: He said that he took the source and a 1.3gb file that is the game.

Source: He leaked the source to a few myg0t'ers (toy and someone else) and they leaked it together on the net. Neither of them stole it, just leaked it outside of myg0t.

Source: Ive known myg0t for some time, and was friends with g0d, they have a few skilled people, probably good enough to pull this off.

Source: my friend also stated they would have released the game as well, and that SX is writing hacks for it first.

Source: The game might be leaked sometime next week, depending on whether or not SX gives it out.

Source: You cna use this info freely, but keep my name out of it. Call me AnonJr if you wish :-)

dhampireJames: alright

dhampireJames: thanks

Source: np

dhampireJames: i get all kinds of information all the time so i just write it im never entirely sure if its true or not

Source: im pretty sure this is true

Source: i deeply hate myg0t for what theyve done to CS

Source: normally i wouldnt care, but they should be taken care of...

There is a DOOM III nfo file posted in usenet just this morning. It implies that Fairlight has DOOM III now.

Four cds

Has anyone heard anything about this also or is it garbage?
